"It's been quite a whirlwind," said Guthrie, whose bluesy, acoustic cover of the dance tune "Sexy and I Know It" went viral on YouTube and now has more than 12.8 million views.”
He posted the cover as a joke and the result is millions thought it was cool.
Guthrie has appeared on NBC's Today Show and played in New York City and Los Angeles. His CD of original recordings is due out soon and he is playing venues across the Carolinas and Georgia.
Guthrie is traveling, playing different venues and considering his next moves beyond YouTube and "Sexy and I Know It," saying there are maybe as many as "six different directions" he could go.
